As climate change is warming our planet, the ice in Earth's cryosphere is melting. An unexpected result has been the discovery of artifacts that were long preserved in the ice's depths. This one-of-a-kind introduction to glacial archaeology examines some of the fascinating artifacts that have been uncovered and the insights they provide into how our ancestors lived. Full color.
